Hilton Daytona Beach Oceanfront Resort
No luggage carts available no ice machine nearby so you have to order via hotel phone and good luck with that, over an hour to check-in. Since once again no luggage carts or bell boys, their excuse all carts in use.

View was fantastic, the room was clean with comfortable beds and a nice balcony. The outside patio could use a little updating, but staff was friendly and the location was great.
